The international bestselling novelist and Denmark’s
“Queen of Crime,” Sara Blaedel is “entertaining all the way”
(Politiken) in this suspense-packed thriller
featuring her acclaimed detective heroine Louise Rick.

An online flirtation can have horrific consequences, as
Detective Inspector Louise Rick discovers when she is called
to an idyllic Copenhagen neighborhood where a young woman
has been left bound and gagged after a profoundly brutal
rape attack. Susanne Hansson met her rapist on a popular
dating website; fearing the assailant is trolling the site
for his next target, Louise is determined to cut him off at
the pass. But then a new victim is found—dead this time—and
the case becomes even more complex when Susanne attempts
suicide. From scanning seemingly innocent singles’ profiles
to exploring a digital window on the city’s dark and
dangerous nightlife, to understanding a troubled
mother-daughter relationship, Louise races to uncover the
shocking truth behind the crimes.
